Integration with Google Protocol Buffer

[Trustin Lee]

Hi folks,

A user one day told me that it would be nice if Netty has a codec for
Google Protocol Buffers, and I think it's a great idea.  Here's a JIRA
issue:

  * https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/NETTY-97

However, I don't have much experience with protobuf yet although I know
how to encode and decode a protobuf message programmatically.  From my
understanding, it seems like a user usually defines a top level message
type that can be a container of other messages.  This approach is
described here in detail:

  * Official documentation - http://tinyurl.com/56cerv
  * Forum discussion - http://tinyurl.com/5zabns

Does anyone here have experience with protobuf in a fairly complex
application?  Any feed back would be appreciated!

Cheers,
Trustin
